School Supply Cake

If you are a regular visitor, thank-you so much for checking in. I can't tell you how much I love all my blogging friends. Teacher Appreciation week starts Monday, May 7th. If you are looking for more ideas, check out my pinterest board here... http://pinterest.com/jenni_swenson1/teacher-appreciation/

Today, I'm going to share my favorite project from my appearance this morning... the teacher supply cake. I started with 3 round boxes from Michael's. I spray painted them with banner red Krylon spray paint.

For the first layer of the cake, I alternated crayons and glue. I stuck them on with 3d tape and added a ribbon around them to make sure they were on tight!

For the next layer, I alternated glue sticks and chalk. I put a little hot glue on the supplies and also between the boxes to make sure they were secure.

The top layer has some pencils, and some more glue and crayons. I added some ric rac and some clothespins to embellish.
